In Chapter 29, Poem 43 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the Sufi themes of absolute devotion and total renunciation. The lover is depicted as willingly trading the entirety of both worlds and all personal well-being (عافیت) merely for the 'scent' and 'face' of the Divine Beloved. A striking mystical paradox is presented in the first couplet where the lover sacrifices a 'life he did not possess' (جانی که نداشت)—highlighting that true lovers have already surrendered their very existence, meaning their ultimate sacrifice is an act of giving away what they have already entirely relinquished to God.
